And no mention of the expected 400 students at the school coming in across the street. No answer to the fact that Twin Rivers are the lowest performing schools in entire state. (Will jamming so many low income projects in such an educational disaster area pass Federal muster? We shall see. Seems blatantly racist to me.) How about the streets, narrow as the Crookedest Street in SF, going to accommodate ambulances for our large elderly population and school buses? I have pictures of one stuck between cars. Poorly thought out project that offends the elderly, school children, and the sacred area of the Police Memorial.

This project will physically dominate our community, monopolize our green space and congest our roads. But there are nearby spaces where this project could instead improve the environment. The inflexibility and the lack of imagination and foresight from the State and Bridge is awful. The community knows this project is a huge mistake so why can’t you listen Bridge?

Bridge Housing should be required to pay for sidewalks and traffic mitigation at least between this housing project and the local school. Should also be required to fund two new teachers and two new classrooms at the local elementary school

If this developer had ANY interest in the actual residents nearby
they would
have taken our feedback at the start of this project. Y’all had zero interest then and less now. Exempt from
required park contribution to the area
and blind and disinterested in design or
size changes. This "vacant" property HAD A PLAN - it was townhouses and a developed area with shopping for
nearby residents. This community
spent millions of dollars on a plan - and the city and developers ignored it. At
this point - good luck - we will start
counting the pedestrian fatalities from
your parking lot on the very busy Arden Way. Money was and will always be the end game for these folks. Helping people is last on your list just above community participation.

Has the state bumped its head? Have you been to the site? This is a terrible location for housing. A 5-story building in a park in a single family residential area? We have 5 housing projects within a mile of this park. None of the housing projects are required to provide any park space. Woodlake park would be the go-to and we currently have very little parking for park visitors. A better location for this project would be at the former Colfax Yard. This location was a planned TOD back in the day. We also have a park area dedicated to fallen police officer Tara O’Sullivan plus the police and sheriffs memorial. These landmarks have events throughout the year and parking is already very difficult at those events. Woodlake is a historical asset for this district - it was modeled after an English village and it is a special place. We have to move forward though fully for this park space. Our cal enviro screen score is 96 for air quality and geotracker has this community designated as a severely disadvantaged community. We need park space for healthy living. This area should be an orchard with trees and benches and community tables and parking. We need activities that draw existing community and future residents of the many already approved projects at this location.

Why aren’t you thinking of how this will effect the safety of the existing Community. Putting Sidewalks around the Park will only create more dangerous situations when they try and walk down the sidewalks and cross the streets to no sidewalks. This project will push children into the streets when they walk to school. Are you going to take Responsibility when one of these children get hit.
